She Envied the Widows.

LOUISVILLE Post.
A party of ladies and gentlemen were
gathered around a coy fireplace in a
fashionable home the other evening,
when it was suggested that each name
his one paramount wish. After the ma
jority had gone through the ordinary
wishes of beauty, wealth, power, one of
the ladies startled the company by say
ing: 'If some good fairy gave me the
power of making wish that would be
absolutely granted, it would be this:
That | be born rich young widow with
two Children
''Why?" asked several of those pres.
ent.
My society life is dead failure. 1
feel that l am going to be an old maid.
Every one is even now pointing the finger
of pity at me. The trouble is, wont
marry any one who has ever courted me,
and those / would have will not have me.
Ii had been born a rich young widow
all this would have been averted. [
could gowhere pleased, do as pleased,
be as independent as a bird, have the
whole world at my feet, and, IN fact, be
serenely happy"
But why do you want the children?"
"a woman can't be happy without
children. She must have something to
love, and | can't stand poodles. And,
besides this, widow is more greatly
respected with than without children"

One day last week, while an Indian
by the name of Fineday and young
squaw were fishing near Squaw point,
ON Big Pine lake, they were suddenly
startled to see large object rise out of
the water near their boat. Fineday was
SO badly frightened that he laid fiat
down in the bottom of the boat, while
he compelled the young squaw to watch
the actions Of the monster, who kept
on top of the water for few minutes
and then suddenly disappeared. Fine
day describes it as being fully thirty
feet long and as large around as saw
log, and weighing fully 1900 pounds
When asked why he did not try to cap
ture it he said: so, no; Indian afraid
white man catch him." Whether there
is any truth in his seeing it or not, it is
a fact that money could not hire the In
dian to. go near .Squaw point. Parties
are being organized and having hooks
made, looking to the capture of the

THE sAxoNs' SIMPLE WAYS.
How the VilIag Folk Assist Each
Other in Their Work.

Lady's World.
The author of "Life and Society in
Eastern Europe gives a lively picture
of the primitive customs still kept up
among the Saxon settlers in Hungary.
The reader who is acquainted with the
''log-rollings," the ''huskingS," and
the ''apple-bees," which are re-
ally society matters in the new settle
mentS of this country, says the Youths
Companion, will be interested in these
eastern occasions as perhaps the orig
inalS of similar institutions here. The
authors Saxon host, after speaking of
the GypSieS and Wallacks as common
farm hands, goes on to explain how the
SaXons cOntrive to make themselves in
dependent of such help:
Ihey do the drudgery for Us; but
plOwing, sowing, moving and leaping,
being honorable and manly labor, we
do ourselves by mutually assisting one
another throughout the busy season of
the year.
AS soon as the service is over in the
church of Sunday our honorable"
mayor addresses the honorable neigh
b0rs," assembled in the church porch
on rainy weather and under one of the
trees in the church inclosure when fine.
He tells them, for instance, that, as it
is the season of the year when this or
that sort of work ought to be done,
Widow Breitlachner's fields must be at
tended to first, or whatever other
widows and orphans fields have to be
plowed, sowed or moved, and then it is
decided among us honorable neigh
bOrS'' that so many of us shall attend to
the widows and orphans crops on the
morrow.
By dint of mutually assisting one an
other, all the outdoor farm work which
we cannot intruSt to the Wallacks is cot
through, for all SaXOnS are good neigh
bors, and the interests of all are studied
just as though they were brothers. The
hay-market seasons are the busiest of
the whole year.
We are out in the fields all day, and
on moonlight nights all night too,
and only sleep during few
hours in the hottest part of the
day or before the rising of the moon.
The old men of the village remain over
night to look after the safety of our
wives and children, and dozen or more
of them are told off to wander about the
streets throughout the night to keep
sharp lookout against the breaking out
OF fire or the attack of robbers.
Some of them are mounted when on
patrol, and they all carry horns
with them. which they blow at
stated intervals in order that
we, away in the meadow moving. may
know that we are keeping vigilant watch
and that all at home are safe. Then is
the alarm-horn blown from the church
tower in case of anything happening,
and on hearing that we all rush home to
the rescue. 1t is an old custom that has
been in vogue among us for centuries,
but it is an excellent one for all that.

A PARADE OF $4,000 BABIES
Each of Whom Should Have a
Ticket in the Globes Benefit.

j. w. F. has suggested through st.
Louis paper that if President Cleveland
comes to that city it would be well to
commemorate his visit by parade of
$4,000 babies in baby carriages-white
babies, of course. The correspondent
proceeds to make statistical estimate
of what the new baby carriages, the new
dresses for both babies and mammas
and other incidental expenses would
cost. 1t reaches the handsome figure of
S3,000,000. Between now and then, he
says, it wonld stimulate so many indus
tries, boom trade in textile fabrics, in
crease the population of that city, and
undoubtedly make Mr.. Cleveland solid
with the Missouri delegation.

THE APACHES.
They Are Now Fleeing Before the
~ TrOODS,

- IFOOpSs
II NoGALEs, AriZ., June 9.-The Indian
outbreak in this territory is assuming
serious proportions. The widespread
depredations Indicate that there are
many more than 170 bucks on the war
path, as at first reported. The whole
country is filled with excitement, and it
is feared parties will organize to visit the
San Carlos reservation. In such an event
there would be great slaughter. Word
comes from w. E. Leek, of Crittenden,
that he and two others were aroused
yesterday morning by several rifle shots
and found they were surrounded by In
dians. Mike Grace, one of the party,
an old pioneer and highly esteemed cit
izen of Arizona, was killed. The other
two made their escape through
canyon, pursued by the savages.
The people of Crittenden appealed
to the station agent at NOgales
to send them aid. In fifteen minutes
special train had soldiers on board in
charge of Capt Lee. A portion of the
command under Capt. Mutt is on the
trail of the hostiles. A courier reports
that he ran into party of Indians, and
is now chasing them over the hills.
They seem to be making for the Pata-
gonia mountains, and it is quite evident
that the hostileS intend to reach the
Sierra Madre mountains.

The Social Amenities.

The Elmira Gazette reports this little
specimen of social amenities: Miss
Sawyer, who is poor, was introduced at
a lunch party to Miss Taylor, who is
rich, and was coldly received. Miss
Sawyer is bright and knows her own
antecedents, and Miss Taylor's also.
She was unabashed and spoke cheerily:
''l'm so glad to meet you. I've often
wanted to. It's so funny-my name is
Sawyer, and my grandfather was q
tailor, and your name is Taylor and
your grandfather was a sawyer. Mine
used to make clothes for yours, and
yours-u used to saw wood for mine."

are in state of apathy or Indifference,
and those who take curious delight in
discOuraging the efforts of others by
ridicule, by persistent denial that any
progress can or has been accomplished,
and by Boosting of every other city be-
side their own. The last class are called
croakers, but they really are something
worse, for their opposition does not arise
simply from dependency, but from that
unenviable spirit which will neither act
itself nor suffer others to act.

You-and that maiden fair!

with its pretty flush add its roseate hue?
Can ever forget that kiss stole?

Under the Western starlit sky

With never watcher by.
And the plover piped his merriest notes
And the whippoorwill tunedlhis sweetest

While the yellow daisies nodded their heads
AS she stole my heart away.

would otherwise do were competition
active. 1t is unjust and un-American
to allow the few to benefit at the eX-
pense of the whole. Minnesota and the
West generally, in advocating free trade,
recognizes this fact, and it is time the
country at large sees it. This govern
ment is for the people, not for monop-
olists, but so long as it favors the latter
by the imposition of the tariff it might
as well be government directly in the
interest of monopoly.

A TARIFF FALLACY.

1t is the one invariable argument of
the protectionists that high tariff
makes high wages, and, however often
their other arguments may be refuted.
to this one they cling with bulldog te-
nacity. Their most favored illustra-
tions is the so-called pauper labor in
Europe, and they point triumphantly
to the fact that i'll countries where
tariff is practically nonresident, the
wages paid to labor are extremely
scanty. AS a matter of fact, they could
iii our own country observe as great
differences in the remuneration of labor
as has ever existed between the aver
age rate paid in this country and in
any of the free trade countries. A
comparison according to the census of
1880 for instance, develops the
fact that in Minnesota where
manufactures, of the protected
kind are almost entirely absent, the av-
erage rate of wages was $50 above the
average for the entire country, while in
Massachusetts. the very hotbed of pro-
Ftection, the average was $50 below the
average of the country, and s11S below
the average in Minnesota. While this
fact may be very strong argument in
favor of immigration to more favored
minnesota, it also is an evidence that
fhe arguments of the protectionists are
All-founded.
If high tariff makes high wages,
why are they not as high in Massachu-
sets as in Minnesota? The truth of the
matter is that the proportionate amount
of the gross return of capital invested
received by the laborer will remain the
same with or without the tariff. The
tax simply acts in permitting few
favored investors to employ their cap
ital in certain way without competi-
tion, and thereby to compel consumers
to pay much higher rate than they

Carthage; the admiration of all old set

ment. But. alas! right in the midst of

STOP 1T.

The people of San Francisco have
lately been aStonished at the great num-
Der of Frenchmen landing at that port,
since it is naturally to be presumed that
immigrants from France would enter at
some port on the Atlantic coast. Inves-
tigation diScloSeS the fact that the i'm
migrants are eonvictS from New Gale
donia, who having served their time, or
having received tickets of leave, have
been assisted to this country.
We do not want such immigrants and
the government should take measures
to prevent their coming. Foreign gov
ernments have been entire too apt to
fancy that America is place upon
which they are perfectly at liberty to
dump their human refuse and it is
time the outrage was stopped. We do
not want their SeOurings any more than
they do themselves, and this govern

man who comes with honest intentions,
a good record and strong arms seeking
to find a new and better home in the
land of liberty, who fees from mo-
narchal oppression to become one among
a nation of freemen, this government
extends cordial welcome. But for the
